    Hi guys,

    I need your expertise for a second..

    So I created a simple website using iWeb. Everything was great until I had to transfer this to my web server. I downloaded Easy iWeb Publisher to help me transfer them. I configured it correctly, using my FTP information.

    I used public_html as the folder to place all of the files. However, it doesn't look as if it uploaded correctly. See here: http://www.ewritenowservices.com

    Could someone please give me a clue as to what I did wrong? Is public_html the incorrect place to upload to?

    Thanks!!
    Heather

    Is "About_Us.html" the file you uploaded?

    Well, if it is...

    The main page of your website preferably needs to be named either of the following - depending on your web-server's configuration:

    - index.html
    - index.htm
    - index.php
    - default.html
    - default.htm
    - default.php

    Oh and, please remember all filenames on Linux/Unix are case sensitive. Therefore, 'index.html' wouldn't be the same as 'Index.html'

    Hi there, thanks for replying :)

    If you look now... at http://www.ewritenowservices.com there is a folder that says "ewritenow." my website looks perfect when you click the folder. however, it just won't show up in the index. do you know why this is?

    rename Welcome.html to index.html

    Also, you'll need to change the links on the other pages to index.html too
